The Ecuadorian winger claimed that he was excited to wear the same jersey that had been worn by club legends http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Beckham-c10432 and Eric Cantona.
At Old Trafford, nothing is more revered than the holder of the number seven jersey. The shirt has forever etched itself in United folklore, with players having adorned it on the biggest of occasions.
George Best’s heroics in Manchester are unlikely to ever be forgotten and so is charisma and sheer brilliance of Eric Cantona, the philosophical French-man who set the club on their path to glory.
Later David Beckham went onto become an icon while wearing the legendry number and his free-kicks along with fame off the pitch further highlighted the importance of the shirt.
Then came a youngster from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984, who set the Premier League alight with his skills and in the process became the Red Devils’ first Ballon D’or winner in over forty years.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629’s efforts were enough to earn him the most expensive transfer in history and he also earned the undying respect of the United faithful.
Now it’s Antonio Valencia’s turn, the winger who has carved a niche for himself amongst the plethora of talents at the helm. With his eye for a goal and a blistering turn of pace, he is bound to bring much more joy to the fans and with the number seven on
his back, the cheers for him will be louder than ever.
“I’m excited to be wearing the no.7 shirt in the coming season. It’s a number I really respect because so many great players have worn the shirt and made history for Manchester United in it. Now I hope I can write my own. It’s a new adventure but it’s something
that I’m very relaxed about and also humbled by. All the players are feeling good about the new season.”
“There is a great team spirit amongst everyone. I love being part of this team – I have some good friends here and I laugh a lot with guys like Evra, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nani-c27299 and Chicharito, but everybody in the group has a laugh together.”
United start their Premier League campaign with a trip to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019 on the 18th of August.
